The Doctor offered Mickey to come with them and, in front of Rose, he covered for Mickey's not wanting to come with them so Mickey wouldn't look bad. That was pretty nice of him, actually.
Here’s my opinion on Mickey and Rose, that I think nobody else really touches on. Rose and Mickey grew up as kids together. They were together, mostly because of proximity. It’s the sort of relationship that most people grow out of. Their relationship would have ended if one of them went to college, or got a job in a different city or something. Mickey clings to Rose, because she’s comfortable, familiar, and all he’s known up to this point. It’s played for laughs, but a lot of people separate from both romantic and platonic relationships at this stage in their lives. Rose is moving on, and growing up. It’s hard and painful, especially for Mickey, as he feels “left behind”, but it’s ultimately healthy. Most of us do not stay long term with our “first love”. Anyway, LOVING the reactions!! I so appreciate reactors who actually get into the intricacies of the show, appreciate the deeper messages, but also enjoy the silliness. Keep it up!!
You guys have easily risen to become my #1 favourite Doctor Who Reactors now. The chemistry and banter you guys have with each other and the show is so enjoyable to watch and as someone who has been a fan of the modern show since it first aired in 2005, it’s like I’m seeing it for the first time all over again with how much fun I have seeing you enjoy the silliness and the emotion of the show! Hopefully you keep reacting to the show! You 100% have a dedicated viewer with me! ❤❤
You have absolutely warmed my heart with this comment. Thank you so much. We are having a great time with this show and we're looking forward to bringing you more.
It’s great that you’re getting into Doctor Who. I’ve watched all of new who multiple times. Now I’ve gone back to watch classic who….. you know…… all the stuff that my parents wouldn’t let me watch when I was a kid. They deemed it “too scary” without ever having watched a single episode. The old stuff is definitely paced differently, and if you think 2006 special effects are iffy, wait until you see the 1960’s stuff. Im loving it though……. Honestly, there isn’t a Doctor that I dislike so far.
I'm looking forward to checking out some of the original episodes. As far as the special effects go, I can take them with a grain of salt. As long as I'm entertained and/or learn something I'm happy.
Yes the doctor can be a jerk. But when he gives you respect, he means it. MP is member of parliament like House of Representatives. I really like how Mickey is developing as a character. He started such a loser but he’s getting brave. I love Mickey and Jackie in scenes together.
I think he's slowly starting to come around. If a transdimensional being just popped up in front of me, I'm not certain how long I'd keep my cool. Let's see where the story goes.
I had forgotten how the Doctor covered for Mickey privately not wanting to go, by publicly forbidding him. That was kind in spite of how it made him look a bit rough.
@@R_SENAL Yeah, basically making himself the bad guy in front of Rose by putting his foot down. She easily buys it because he's said on multiple occasions that he doesn't want to deal with "domestics", which also points out how the Doctor is starting to soften by being the one to ask Mickey if he wants to come along first.
If you were wondering why nobody shoot, when the Doctor stepped into the elevator, think about, the danger is too high for ricochet bullets in that situation. The steel interior and steel components of an elevator, may deflect bullets and that is too risky, to shoot right in front of an elevator. !!
If I'm being honest, I've watched many reactors for this show and among my favorites are the Blind Wave Crew and Jessie (Sesskasays), amongst others, but even after just 5 episodes with you guys, I can honestly say that, for me, no one understands this show as well as you guys. You might just be the best pair I've seen react to this show and your understanding of it goes deeper than most. I can see you honestly enjoying the entire show and each and every Doctor without much prejudice, like me. You may just be my #1 guys for this show. But then again, I may be biased because I always end up loving everything the two of you do together. Most of the time, it's like you are reading my own thoughts. 😂 Great work. Much appreciated. Till the next time...
The Prime Minister would also represent a constituency like MP Harriet Jones does- since all the other MPs are gone or absent she has to step up and make Prime Ministerial decisions.
Glad I subbed here too on my main account (I'm Rsenal's Arsenal too) because otherwise I wouldn't have seen this till Monday. I needed something to watch while grinding my MMO, and this is great! I love the "chitins" 😂 I think this one had to be 2 episodes because with all the character development around the story it would have felt too rushed otherwise. RTD (writer & showrunner) likes his characters to have believable supporting cast and personal lives. One of the things about Classic era WHO was that many companions/friends of the Doctor were orphans or had some reason to be loners, and Russel wanted to do something different with New WHO. Still glad you are seeing the politics of the show, it is ever present and intentional and always has been. Even if the aliens are all about that paper, it still holds a mirror up to our values. Oh and the recession/Trump comment was great.🤣
The goofyness and 'Keystone cops" in Doctor Who indeed gives you Scooby-Doo vibes and to show you how close that is, there's a meme/cartoon about that with the quotes (especially fit for this episode): Scooby-Doo be like: "Well gang, looks like the "alienr" was old Mr Jenkins all along!" Doctor Who be like: "Well gang, looks like "old Mr Jenkins' was an alien all along!" Love me some Sean Connery and the ever so charming Pierce Brosnan and I actually liked George Lazenby's version too, but I assure you, Timothy Dalton has much better roles upon his sleeve than the Bond one, so true.
Be it Keystone cops or Scooby Doo I'm here for a great story. And so far I'm highly entertained. If the Doctor unmasks somebody and closes the episodes off with a 6 foot sandwich and scooby snacks I'm here for it. 😂🤣
Loving this! I was introduced to Doctor Who about when season 4 was airing. I started the same way - I watched the newest episode at the time then spent a summer starting at Rose and catching up. Some greats coming up, can't wait to watch!
The farting aliens are one of the low points but the opportunity to deal with the character arcs of Jackie and Mickey was important so we needed a present day peril to work through to provide a mechanic for that development.
The shot in Ep1 Rose of Mickey clinging to her is supposed to be a gender swap of classic fantasy/action art from the likes of Frank Franzetta and Boris Vallejo where the (usually barely dressed) damsel in distress is clinging to the hero figure, showing that Rose is (or will be) a hero. I'm not sure it quite comes off, but the showrunners are definitely telling us a lot about Mickey, Rose and their relationship.
I like your take that he has the past memories . . . That baggage does inform his current behavior and I think you are right it gives us a place to track an arc.
I just subscribed to your channel. I love Doctor Who and after watching your reactions to it I had to. You have such a unique perspective and make ma laugh. Keep up the good job.
I look forward to the Doctor Who reaction videos every day! I really enjoy the conversation you have together after the episode, you have interesting insights and ask questions I hadn't considered before. Thank you for taking us along on your journey and offering your new, unique, perspectives! I was thinking on Syntell's question, whether this story needed two episodes. I think, if we're talking about the Slitheen story, no, it did not need two episodes. However, if it were one episode, the scenes with Jackie and Mickey likely would have been cut, and so for that reason I think in the greater context of the series story, yes, these episodes were worth the two-parter. I won't get into specifics, but it will be interesting to see if certain scenes or lines from these two episodes come back to either of you during later ones. I will say that Jackie and Mickey are really important for Rose's story arc, in that they give us viewers a better understanding of her life before the Doctor, and lend gravity to her decision to continue journeying with him when we know the people she chooses to leave behind. It's my understanding that in Classic Who, not much time was spent on the Companions' home and family that they left to travel with the Doctor, and I feel, based on the series of New Who I've watched, that getting that glimpse of their lives beyond the TARDIS helps ground these characters in reality. When they are off fighting aliens and monsters, someone, somewhere, back on Earth loves them, and misses them, and worries.
@@Syntell Thank you, I'm glad you liked it! Keep up the great work, I found your channel through these Doctor Who reactions and have enjoyed them immensely! It's so much fun seeing you guys enjoy this series I have loved since it first started airing back in the early 2000's. I can't wait for you to see episode 6, it is a very good one, one of the best of the first season, imo.
22:12 The Doctor can be a jerk. He can also be a nice guy. And if he gets mad he can dang near be the Wrath of God. In this new WHO they have the Doctor win by being smarter and more noble that his enemies. In the classic Who the Doctor would throw hands, break necks and do some judo on fools. On TH-cam, there is a video montage of clips from Classic Doctor Who were he is straight up merking folks. And to make it truly hilarious they have a rap song called “Die M@therfvcker Die” playing in the background.
I've never seen that, I need a link! Most of my recollection of Classic WHO was he knocked a lot of people out, but wasn't killing. The closest to the line for me was 6ey watching guards boil in acid and just smiling and laughing it off.
Have mercy on them stretching it out. Filming in, what was then, current day London was easier and cheaper than futuristic/historical settings or alien ones.
While this gets slated for having farting aliens it really is about how easily governments can be manipulated by pretend threats... cough modern relevance cough...
MP stands for Member of Parliament, i find it funny that some of the toxic fans complain about current Dr. Who being too political now clearly need to go back and watch these episodes. Alot of people don't like these two-part episodes mostly due to the farting aliens and found it off-putting to some people but for me i personally loved it and find this a very Doctor Whoie episode. Just on the subject on The Ninth Doctor being a jerk yes one reason is he's an alien and will have a difference in human customs but also he only just came out of the war i think i said in the last comment he's the PTSD Doctor and has a survivor's guilt.
As usual, thank you for your interesting reactions. This two parter is one of the weaker ones in the series. Next 4 episodes are definitely much better. (Mickey has got an arc , as you spotted, as have most reoccurring characters.) Next one, you may find a particular scene confusing as its an in-joke to some limitations of the old series, but we’ll explain *after* you’ve seen the show….because, y’know, explaining it before hand would be spoilers.
The best Doctors are often jerks to one degree or another. He is a an alien, after all, and has lived for hundreds of years, travelled the universe, and survived the Time War. He is fascinated by humans and others he meets, but he is not a human. In the original series, the Doctor was the mysterious, eccentric who showed up to take us on an adventure. The companions always represented the viewers. And Harriet Jones is fantastic!
that jar of candy on the pm's deck is probably actually smarties, the original candy that mars famously ripped off through weird trade-secret espionage to create m&ms, and that the uk tends to be super proud and defensive about. over here we have a completely different and unrelated candy called "smarties," those pressed-dextrose rolls of agreeably bland sweetarts-style wafers you find at the bottom of halloween pails-though the trademark rights behind that local name introduce further wrinkles to all the legal hand-wringing. you're online long enough, you will eventually run into cultural drama about smarties and why the us is so offensively wrong about everything. 😂
The thing you need to remember about the Dr is that he just came from the time war where his planet and entire species was destroyed. Pretty major PTSD
I think overall most of the 2 part episodes are drawn out. They basically have too much script to fit in one episode but not enough for 2 so then it just causes us to get some filler scenes. I think in the streaming era this could have done great like if you look at the Mandalorian and how the episodes are as long as they need to be to tell the story so you might get 30 minutes or you might get 50. the only problem with doing story telling that that is it feels cheaper later on if you have less minutes of run time overall for the season. Like if I get a half episode it would be nice to get another half episode to make up for it
Yall are funny thinking aliens landing in London will make a difference. They JUST landed in MIami the first week of January and ppl have forgotten already. Also Vegas… the Doctor is right…. We are apes who just watch Telly and eat chips. 🤷🏾♀️
The first time I watched this I thought the Micky/Ricky scenes were funny. But now, man they were hard on my guy. Losing your girl and then having that man make fun of you to your face? 😮
Another fun fact: the show was told before it aired originally in the 60s to not have aliens. The second serial of the first season had aliens 😂 they did not care 🤣 and who knows what would’ve happened if they stuck to that.
The Doctor offered Mickey to come with them and, in front of Rose, he covered for Mickey's not wanting to come with them so Mickey wouldn't look bad. That was pretty nice of him, actually.
His distaste for Mickey is kinda funny. Cruel, but funny none the less. I think he'll eventually come around by the end of the season.
@@Syntellit’ll take slightly longer than that, but you’re basically right.
Like his actor deserved those chances, but that's another story. @@Syntell
Here’s my opinion on Mickey and Rose, that I think nobody else really touches on. Rose and Mickey grew up as kids together. They were together, mostly because of proximity. It’s the sort of relationship that most people grow out of. Their relationship would have ended if one of them went to college, or got a job in a different city or something. Mickey clings to Rose, because she’s comfortable, familiar, and all he’s known up to this point.

Same! Every day when I open up TH-cam, the first thing I check is this channel for the next Doctor Who reaction, I'm hooked!
You have absolutely warmed my heart with this comment.
Thank you so much. We are having a great time with this show and we're looking forward to bringing you more.
@@Syntell can’t wait ❤️
I'm so happy y'all are doing these! Keep them coming!
So much fun to make. Thank you for taking the time to watch.
You guys are pumping them out!! Cool
Gotta give the people what they want. 🙌🏾🙌🏾
As always thank you for watching.
Love the pace of these releases!
All thanks to our incredible editor. He's a rockstar.

"Bless his little special heart." 🤣 Oh, Mickey. Great reaction, guys! You two get it -- more than you even realize. I'm glad you're enjoying the show!
MP stands for Member of Parliament. Like a Senator/House of representative equivalent.

@@nupefromdaville you're welcome and thank you!
Couldn't agree more, I've been waiting so long for someone I actually enjoy to react to this series. No hate to other reactors of course.
@@boombam5214 you're right. I still enjoy a few others but I just feel like these two just get it, more than the others have been able to.
You should see the smile on my face. EAR TO EAR BABY!!!
Thank you so much for the kind words. It really means a lot.
I knew you were going to do this and make my Saturday morning!!! THANKS!!!!! And MP stands for Member of Parliament.
Ahhhh, Member of Parliament. Thank you for that.
The Prime Minister would also represent a constituency like MP Harriet Jones does- since all the other MPs are gone or absent she has to step up and make Prime Ministerial decisions.
ur one of the few reaction channels that i actually watch the post-episode discussion, ur both so entertaining. perfect balance of funny and analysis
Not my favorite episode but I like the Harriet Jones character and her bit with the name is funny.
Enjoying your reactions to the show.
Yesss. We know who she is. 🤣🤣🤣

And Harriet Jones is fantastic!
2:28 Yikes! I can't unsee it now! 😭😂
8:50 You're not wrong man! 😂
British MP means Member of Parliament like a high ranking politician a senator essentially. Tho she bout to be President or Prime Minister
"the Doctor will grow to a new person bye the next season" 😂 lol 😂
Your reaction to the vinegar explosion was hilarious 😂 I laughed and rewatched for a good minute or so 🤣
😂🤣
M.P = Member of Parliament
P.M = Prime Minister
that jar of candy on the pm's deck is probably actually smarties, the original candy that mars famously ripped off through weird trade-secret espionage to create m&ms, and that the uk tends to be super proud and defensive about.
over here we have a completely different and unrelated candy called "smarties," those pressed-dextrose rolls of agreeably bland sweetarts-style wafers you find at the bottom of halloween pails-though the trademark rights behind that local name introduce further wrinkles to all the legal hand-wringing.
you're online long enough, you will eventually run into cultural drama about smarties and why the us is so offensively wrong about everything. 😂
The thing you need to remember about the Dr is that he just came from the time war where his planet and entire species was destroyed. Pretty major PTSD

If Doctor Who was an American show the doctor would have a sonic shotgun
Recently found out this two parter was loosely based on/inspired by 9/11… Think about it
you offend and insult millions of people mocking the unbelievable great intro music of the song mate
Like we all haven't done it at one point 😅
huh? We love the intro music.
Yall are funny thinking aliens landing in London will make a difference. They JUST landed in MIami the first week of January and ppl have forgotten already. Also Vegas… the Doctor is right…. We are apes who just watch Telly and eat chips. 🤷🏾♀️
I mean, when you're right, you're right.
We're all just here for the shinanigans. 😂
The first time I watched this I thought the Micky/Ricky scenes were funny. But now, man they were hard on my guy. Losing your girl and then having that man make fun of you to your face? 😮
Ricky😂😂😂
It's cringy but HILARIOUS.
The Doctor is "Mr Steal ya girl"
Another fun fact: the show was told before it aired originally in the 60s to not have aliens. The second serial of the first season had aliens 😂 they did not care 🤣 and who knows what would’ve happened if they stuck to that.
It's cool with me. Talk about moving the story along quickly.
For me this episode was the closest to the old who so far. It was an episode my kids at the time loved.
